Vanity is an exploration into what it means to represent our own images as women and as artists. Through research and the participation of various female artists we have come to know throughout our artistic careers, we examine issues of representation and autonomy of our bodies. Women have been labelled as vain, yet confined to a preoccupation with appearance for all of modern history; it is time that we choose how to present ourselves. This work has culminated in a book which responds to the current regression in gender equality. Please look through the book and get to know the women who contributed to this work in the behind-the-scenes film.
